Finally getting around to this...

I created an account so it would be easier to follow other blogs. Now that I've been doing that for a little while, why not start up my own? I have no idea what I'll actually write about. Probably lots to do with my shop. Other Etsy shops. Random things I think about during the day. Some fashion finds along the way. There is really no telling what this will amount to in the end. I just hope it stays interesting enough for you to want to follow along!!!

So lets start by having the very fist post be a littttttle bit about me. *gulp*

HI!!! I'm Katrina. Kat. Kate. Kit Kat. That weird girl over there. Whatever you'd like to call me I'm probably ok with. I spent the first 19 years of my life growing up in a very small town in New York. (Waverly, though I'm positive you've never heard of it!) I moved to Texas when I was 19, a year after my mom moved here. Its been five years, and I'm still here. Though its a fairly decent size city compared to where I was raised, it's very much country life, and I'm still getting used to it.

Right now my day job is filing insurance claims for Blue Cross Blue Shield. It involves sitting in a cubicle all day, listening to my ipod and hitting the enter key quite often. I've always held jobs that include run run running around until now, so this one is driving me out of my mind. It pays the bills though, so I can't complain TOO much.

Outside of work my second job is doing what I love!! CRAFTING!!! hehe. I spend a good amount of time while I'm home creating amazing stuff. Jewelry and scarves and other little accessories mostly. I'm awesome with a pair of needle nose pliers, and my favorite material to work with is anything that someone considers trash. If I see something small or light enough I like, I figure out how to put a hole in it and turn it into a necklace or pair of earrings. Most recently I've been using old paper to decoupage wood pieces for pendants, and taking old ripped up tee shirts and turning them into scarves and cute little flowers with buttons.

When I'm not doing that you can find me probably online.
Random things about me:
I read blogs. I'm addicted to surfing Etsy. I have Facebook up at all times. Last.fm is always playing music in the background. I suck at pool but still love to play. I can't stand chick flicks. My friends are everything to me. I make to-do lists every single day. I have a lipgloss addiction. A good video game can steal my heart. I try to eat as healthy as I can. Inspirational quotes make me happy. I love to cook. I worry about money entirely too much. Music is my life. Traveling is a must.

Anything else? Hmmmm thats good for now!!
